Google Maps Streetview

They've really cocked up that road actually. They blocked out a lot more than his house (I wonder who else lives down there?) and (just past Maccas pad) all the car number plates are still visible.

28 IF ?

loving the motion blur that they now add to the transition as you click through a street

"Maybe if we wait around long enough we can see Oprah!" (SW corner)

Singapore added. Looks quite awesome.

Also Coronation Street

OK, so not interested in that?
How about a walk around Pompeii?

"Report a problem"

peepoop

taiwan is looking well nice on streetview right now and so is hwy 395 between bishop and lone pine (and then 136 se of there)

it's really upsetting to me that i live in a major u.s. city and yet my entire neighborhood is not streetviewed. i wonder if i can contact google to volunteer and they'll come out and weld the camera tower to my car and commission me to do it, including paid training. cause i would do that.

I did actually complain to google that my main minor UK city had not been s/v'ed when Scunthorpe had been. And literally a couple of weeks later they were out and about. However this may not be cause and effect (and they've still not released the maps even though it was months ago).

In the meantime some Berlin art pranksters claim to have attached a GPS device to the googlecar.

The road my parents live on in rural eastern NC is streetviewed. I find that astounding.

There was an article in the paper here a couple weeks ago saying Google are now doing to go round on pushbikes getting areas they couldnt get to by car - zoos, botanical gardens, pizzas, that kind of thing. That'll be awesome!

By "pizzas" I clearly meant "piazzas", erm erm.

Trayce, they're already doing this. See upthread a few posts.

Yeah that kew gardens thing was what made me think of it. Theyve not finished it here yet but I'm looking fwd to being able to see some cities pedestrian plazas, inside taronga and melb zoo, and so on.

I HAVE DISCOVERED THE VORTEX

Turns out it's on Nevada 427.

...and its still sitting where it was on February 7th. Prankster FAIL.

And the whole of Britain is up (or about 96% of the roads anyway). Now we really can see what the most rubbish county is.

URL tells you everything you need to know.

The photos, showing the child's mother or nanny helping him dress and a man looking on, have sparked fears that paedophiles will have a new way to search for photos or targets online.

A MAN LOOKING ON.

Google had blurred the child's face but not the registration plate of the family's car, making it possible to trace their address.

ATTENTION PAEDOS, NAKED CHILD LIVING AT KNOWN ADDRESS IN UK

in my day you could kick a ball in the street with it all hanging out, without fear of being raped by perverts online

Does any country in the world wring it's hands about streetview as much as us Brits?

Google's Street View has come under fire after a new survey shows that two-thirds of people find the images 'intrusive' and 24 per cent think it is a 'service for burglars'.

New survey shows that two-thirds of people find people walking down their street 'intrusive'...

The report was carried out by myvouchercodes.co.uk

yeah they sound reliable

Is the 3D button on Streetview an April Fools joke?

ha! don't have any 3d glasses to test whether it's actually being applied "for real"

haha it totally works

I used my Avatar 3D glasses and it didn't work.

it's just the old fashioned blue & red glasses you need, i don't know how the avatar ones work.

A "View In 3D" option has been added to Google Books as well, so surely it has to be a hoax?

I mean, an AFJ

apj or not, it still works pretty cool. some scenes work better than others there are some dodgy parts.

I'm feeling more fucked-with from the fact that my tiny hometown is now comprehensively covered on Streetview. They've gone too far.

'Horse-boy' on Google Streetview

Google Steed View

oh horse-boy when will you ever become a horse-man

this is my favorite new thing: http://web.mit.edu/~jmcmicha/www/globegenie/

Wow, I think I know what I'm doing for the rest of the afternoon.

I don't understand what it's supposed to be doing.

Okay this is kinda fun

It randomly shows you places on Streetview. Except it's not all that random, as it gets stuck in certain regions.

for me that region is the ohio valley

I keep getting stuck in North Carolina.

What I've been doing in my spare time.

Haven't had that much spare time lately.

That's great, PP. I like.

i'm visible on streetview in 2 diff. locations. the most famous i'll ever be (other than appearing in a live shot from the Gene debut album booklet).

a genie for live cctv's would be more interesting than this street view
